More distortion than VCAs or FETs but not excessive. It has unique auto-release settings with wide ranges depending on the input. It works well on vocals, drums, bass, guitars, and mix bus.

  1. Why don’t my Neve compressors look like the do in the tutorial

    1. The Neve compressor in the video is from Universal Audio and doesn’t come with Logic Pro. The presets emulate the Neve but work in Logic Pro’s compressor.
